FC Bayern wants to take “hype” about the 2026 World Cup with them

FC Bayern Munich drew a positive conclusion from its trip to the USA and left the destination for the next summer trip open.

“I don’t think we decided on three markets for nothing,” said board member Andreas Jung in Green Bay when asked which markets were interesting for the record German soccer champion.

You have to check whether you are traveling to Southeast Asia with a focus on Bangkok, China with Shanghai or again to the USA. You also have the 2026 World Cup in Canada, Mexico and the USA in mind. “I think we have to focus there anyway in order to take this hype with us,” said Jung.

Especially after years of the pandemic break, the fifth US tour was “something special”, said CEO Oliver Kahn. “That’s why we were all very happy to be back in the United States.” Four years before the World Cup, it is exciting to see how football is developing in the USA. “Football is becoming the number one sport for young people.”

When it came to jerseys, the demand for new signing Sadio Mané was currently the greatest, said Jung. When asked about the greater hype about stars from the Premier League, the Bayern board pointed out that the reach of the Bundesliga had to be improved. There’s a huge gap to the Premier League. “This can only be solved together,” he said.
